Abstract

Memory is one of the cognitive abilities that plays an important role in the success of the student's learning process. However, many students still have difficulty recalling the material they have learned and easily forget new information. This study aims to develop an Interactive Flipbook game media based on Cheerful Twin Cards to help train the memory of junior high school students and determine the level of feasibility and practicality. This study uses the Research and Development (R&D) method with a 4D development model that includes Define, Design, and Develop stages. The research subjects consisted of 19 students of UPT SMP Negeri 17 Medan. Data collection was carried out through a needs analysis questionnaire, material expert validation, media expert validation, BK Teacher response questionnaire and student practicality questionnaire. The results of the study showed that the developed media obtained a percentage of material expert validation of 89 % with a very feasible category and media expert validation of 80.33% with a feasible category, the results of BK Teacher responses were 89 .33 with a very feasible category. Meanwhile, the practicality test yielded an average score of 89.8%, categorized as very practical. These findings indicate that the interactive flipbook game based on the Cheerful Twin Cards has excellent feasibility and practicality for use in guidance and counseling services and learning activities. Therefore, the developed media can be an alternative learning medium that is engaging, interactive, and can help train students' memory.
